# --description--

To show possession in English, you typically add `'s` to a name, like `Sophie's desk`. However, for names ending in `s`, you often just add an apostrophe `'`. For example: `James' book`. It means the book belongs to James.

`Server maintenances` and `devices manual` don't show possession. Remember that `'s` or an apostrophe is needed to indicate that something belongs to someone or something.

`Server's maintenance, device's manual`
